I've got an 85 Jetta Turbo diesel for sale, cheap! Runs great but needs a couple of things. 240k on the clock but the engine was apparently rebuilt around 5000 miles ago. It always starts right up, even in super- cold weather.
Needs an alternator and some exhaust work, also needs seal where injection pump meets the block. had a bunch of recent work done, including new rear struts, bushings, wheel cylinders, new brake lines all around. may even come with a set of studded snow tires. Comes with a set of GLI door cards and a westmoreland front end... maybe even an intercooler.
Here's a great opportunity for a fairly rare turbo diesel! Run it as it is, or run this puppy on grease which is what I was going to do! Have the fastest grease car on your block! No pictures of this thing yet so come check it out! It even comes with an almost full tank of diesel. Drive it home today!
